The Witch's Taste

Chapter 183 The Night Watch Wife

The time came to 10pm.

The vast majority of the unemployed miners still gathered around the gate of the Dijing Group headquarters in Shinjuku District, insisting on refusing to compromise and leave, as if they planned to sleep here.

The government and Dijing Group negotiated urgently, and finally decided to open the lobby on the first floor for the miners to rest, and urgently transported a batch of sleeping bags.

There are also some miners who arrived later. Since the road to Shinjuku District was blocked, they could only block the gates of the Dijing Group branch in Sanhe District and Pingan District, as well as near the industrial production park in Sakaguchi District. The posture insists on asking for an explanation.

In fact, after the whole day's events, the Public Security Department also noticed that something was wrong.

Usually, unemployed miners make troubles, basically the workers are trying to form a group, and the higher-ups are trying to divide them.

Miners without a leader are easy to divide, but if they have a leader, it is relatively difficult, so they need to get rid of their leader... Whether it is intimidation or temptation, it can be as effective as possible.

As long as the leader is dealt with, the remaining miners will be easy to deal with.

But the problem with these is that the Public Security Bureau did not find any individuals trying to organize the masses among these miners.

Leaders are actually easy to identify.Most leaders will directly command the masses, so you only need to see who is more active; a slightly smarter leader will organize the miners into formations and arrange captains, and use the captains to command the miners at the bottom, so it takes time to identify identity.

The most troublesome situation is that the leader never talks directly with the captains, but pretends to be an ordinary miner and secretly contacts the captains through electronic devices such as mobile phones. Then experts in electronic equipment are needed to monitor them. dialogue and forensic analysis to find out the specific location of the leader.

The strange thing about the situation this time is that not only did they not find the leader, they didn't even find any captain.

The miners didn't use mobile devices, didn't communicate with each other very often, just maintained a kind of weird silence...but they were definitely not unorganized.

Whether it was the distribution of food and drinking water, or negotiations with the Dijing Group, they maintained a high degree of discipline and unity, and there were no riots or disagreements.

Yuki Izumo is very keen and suspects that it is some kind of "unknown mysterious means" that is maintaining the secret contact between the miners.

The person in charge, Xia Qingyu, was not there, so the Public Security Department could only contact the two section chiefs, Chen Ziang and Suifeng Lixu, to discuss the relevant plans for going to the scene tomorrow to confirm.

Chen Ziang was working late at night. Although Xia Zili was a little sleepy, she didn't plan to go back to sleep, and just sat beside him.

She was wearing light pajamas and shorts, revealing her smooth and white thighs. She was curled up on the sofa at this moment, making her legs look more slender and attractive.

Combining Xia Qingyu and "Zili's mother", it seems that this long-legged gene should be a "royal gene" inherited from the maternal line.

Chen Ziang also had no time to admire her beautiful long legs, so he just said:

"Why don't you go to sleep for a while, I still have work."

"I'm not sleepy." Xia Zili shook her head and said.

In the memory fragments, when the husband stays up late at work, she usually stays by his side, pouring tea or making coffee for him, playing the role of a virtuous wife.

Xia Zili subconsciously imitated herself in memory.

Although she didn't think about why she did this, it was obvious that she was gradually digesting these memories, or... assimilated?

No matter what the situation is, the only thing that is certain is that the relationship between the two of them in her mind has already surpassed the category of ordinary friends.

Chen Ziang was completely unaware of this, and just continued to discuss the plan with Rio Hokaze and Izumo Yuuki when he suddenly felt his shoulders sink.

Xia Zili, who was next to him, couldn't bear the sleepiness any longer, and fell on top of him.

He carefully carried Xia Zili back to the bedroom, covered her with the quilt, and then returned to the living room to continue working.

Fortunately, this time her "mother" did not show up.

------

The next morning.

Chen Ziang woke up from his sleep and hurried to get his phone.

The unemployed miners did not riot for the time being, but continued to surround Dijing Group's various companies and factories in Jibei City, waiting for a response from the company or the government.

Their original appeal was to either arrange reemployment or provide resettlement fees, but now they propose a third option:

Let the mining ship stationed in Gao Tianyuan.

Re-employment is definitely impossible. What kind of unit can accommodate so many unemployed laborers?

Resettlement fees are also out of the question, where does the money come from?
The stationing of mining ships in Gaotianyuan became the most likely path among the three options, but the higher-ups did not intend to let go of this, but urged the Public Security Department to act quickly.

Chen Ziang got up to wash up, walked down the stairs, and saw Xia Zili wearing a kitchen apron, frying eggs and bacon in a pan.

"Breakfast will be ready soon!" she cried without looking back. "Go to the table and wait a while."

"I asked you to make breakfast for me." Chen Ziang was a little embarrassed, "Thank you for your hard work."

Xia Zili was startled when he heard the words, then smiled and said:

"It's okay, and thank you for letting me borrow it again."

"If it's Suzuna Tsukimiya." The mother's phantom beside the refrigerator said faintly, "He would never be so polite. Politeness is the proof of alienation."

"It doesn't matter." Xia Zili turned the bacon over, "Now we are just ordinary friends, and... After all, Yuegong Suzuna knew him earlier."

"Then what if Suzuna Yuegong took advantage of the first mover advantage to snatch him away from you?" Mother continued to whisper, as if bewitched by the hell devil.

"As long as he can be happy." Xia Zili replied calmly, "Mother, I'm fine."

"Stupid child." The mother's voice revealed pity and sympathy, "When I assumed that Tsukimiya Suzuna took him away, your subconscious reaction was to force yourself to accept the reality instead of thinking about finding a new partner..."

"In your heart, this life has already depended on him."

Xia Zili's movements stopped.

"But, it's weird, isn't it?" she asked hesitantly, "Why am I doing this?"

"Obviously...Obviously we haven't been together for long, why do I have such deep feelings for him? It's just a few dreams..."

"Because he should belong to you." The mother's voice became weird, as if she was suppressing some deep emotions, "He can only belong to you."

"If someone were to take him away from you..."

"...you have to resist with all your strength."

Xia Zili stood silently for a long time before bringing the breakfast to the dining table, and then began to feed Chen Xiaozhu.

"What are your plans next?" Chen Ziang looked at the phone and asked casually.

"What's the situation outside now?" Xia Zili asked him back.

"It's still about to come." Chen Ziang said with a sigh, "Everyone knows there may be chaos, but we don't know when it will come, so it's quite troublesome."

"If it's convenient, can you let me stay for a few more days?" Xia Zili said in a low voice, "Sister Ji Xiang told me not to go back to Sanhe District as much as possible."

She took out her mobile phone, opened the office's work group, and showed Chen Ziang a video uploaded in the group.

It seems to be a surveillance video of a convenience store: a group of unemployed miners (the number of people seems to be about seven or eight) entered the store, took all the bread and drinking water, and then made up at the checkout counter and took out a lot of coins And scattered banknotes, finally got the money together.

The video itself does not show any violence, but anyone who sees this video will inevitably have some anxiety in their hearts:
There are so many people who consume a lot of food and water every day, and the money on them is no longer enough from the video.

So what should they do when the money runs out?

It is definitely not advisable to assume that others are criminals.But if you don't do anything to prevent it, then don't blame other people when you encounter an accident.

In short, the boss of the firm has issued a notice that all artists and staff will work from home in the future. At the same time, it is recommended that everyone lock the doors and windows, do not go out easily, and keep the phone numbers of the local public security department and emergency hospital, etc.

Chen Ziang looked at it with emotion: You can work at home, but as the head of the Field Service Section of the Intelligence Bureau, I have the duty to go out.

After breakfast, he told Xia Zili to stay at home and not to open the door to strangers, then he took his equipment and went out.
